Liverpool fan with £100 quadruple bet rejected huge cash-out offers before Man City won PL

After Manchester City won the Premier League title on Sunday, spare a thought for the fan who refused to cash out her £100 bet on Liverpool to win the quadruple.

Liverpool supporter Tanya Hanley placed a £100 bet – her first ever bet, by the way – on Liverpool to win all four major trophies this season at odds of 3,671/1.

She stood to win a massive £367,200 if the Reds followed up their League Cup and FA Cup triumphs by lifting the Premier League and Champions League trophies.

“I just had a feeling that Liverpool could do it and that something big was going to happen,” Tanya told Betfair. “I had a wager with a friend on it, they had put a bet on it too, then I saw the odds that Betfair had for Liverpool to win all four trophies and I opened an account and placed my first ever bet.

“My family and friends are constantly asking me about it and checking if I’ve cashed out yet, but I don’t want to cash out. I wasn’t even bothered about knowing what the figure was as I just wanted to keep the bet going.

“It’s a big amount but I’m not swayed as I believe in them, they’ve come so far. It’s the closest anyone has ever been to winning the Quadruple, I really feel like they could do it.”
